It's so warm here that the only scarf I can wear is my twilly. It represents a collection of Colliers de chien, which is perfect for this week's theme. I also think my Swarovski earrings are a great match!

Melora- I love Colliers de Chien twilly! I think that's the one I want next. And I super love the matching earrings too! Nice!

Here I am channeling arabeques' stripe shirt post from the other day with my second knot attempt. I decided to go straight for the throat, LOL. It's BdG again since that's my only carre right now, and luckily fit this weeks theme. It looks complex maybe but it's not a hard knot and supposedly is better for smaller squares. I can see how that might be. It's called a flower knot. I couldn't resist that. I was aiming for Brides to be in front again, and got it (YAY!) with a tiny bit of fussing. I was afraid the pattern would be too big to make the flower work, but I think it still looks nice.

Momasaurus, if memory serves me correctly, you had asked that I share my green cw of Echec au Roi flat. Here she is! Actually, I guess it can also fit this weeks theme as a 'collection of chess pieces'.:smile1: Sorry for being so late, my dear!

Here's my small collection (2!) of Charmante aux Animaux scarves, which I posted pix of last week tied together.

As you can see, it's not at all obvious that combining them would be so stunning.

Brilliant - those silks just leap off the screen and on you.

A lovely colorway of the Kings Ranch silk Croisette.

Glorious flower knot and it does work with stripes - I favor those striped tops quite a bit myself.;)

Thanks! Hope you'll be able to find it - the choice on H.com is getting more limited (the red is now gone).

I think I managed to have a smaller flower once, but it took lots of trials to have a nice one!

How about a "collection" of Samurai swords? Daimyo, in the gold & black CW. I'm wearing the scarf against a navy tee, so the scarf has taken on a bit of a navy cast, but it is a true, deep black. And if you look closely, you can see the jacquard ginkgo leaves!

The first photo is courtesy of dear arabesques, whose knot I tried (tried!:giggles:) to copy. Thank you, my friend! If I keep practicing, I might just make it look as pretty as yours! My personal favorite is the third knot, since it makes the two cranes in the center visible.
